We are currently working on construction plans for this project and will have plans in for permitting prior to February 23, 2007 but may not have obtained a construction permit prior to this date. As we understand, we must be under construction prior to February 23, 2007 or request an extension to the Conditional Use Permit. Because of the unknowns in the timing of receiving a permit we would like to request an extension of the Conditional Use Permit. Please let us know if you have any questions. As always thank you very much for your help. Si, -rely, la Veronica J. :,. Mor 1.arr, P.E., C.F.M.

Given the level of detail in the Concept Plan submitted in conjunction with the Conditional Use Permit application, adherence to the provisions within Section 5.6.A Wolf Pen Creek (WPC) may affect the site plan, which includes the following: • Development Criteria; • Dedication/Development of Drainage and Pedestrian Ways; 1. The Concept Plan appears to fulfill Subsection A of this section. • Fill Materials; • Lighting; • Solid Waste; • Relationship of Buildings to the Site; 1. This section should be integrated into the Concept Plan to the greatest extent practicable. • Relationship of Buildings to the Adjoining Area; • Building Design; • Miscellaneous Structures and Street Hardware; • Landscaping (as reference below); • Signs; and, • Maintenance. The proposed parking plan must be revised. Counting both garage spaces and drive spaces is not acceptable. Required and surplus parking provided should be in designated areas, not behind spaces counted within garages that may or may not be accessible to the residents. The process for this application will be as follows: Planning & Zoning Commission — recommend action on CUP City Council —final action on CUP Design Review Board —action* on detail site plan *The Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council will be asked of their expectation for review of the detailed site plan as this is a Conditional Use Permit. Therefore, "action" taken by the DRB may be regarded as "final or "as "recommendation" resulting in the detailed site plan being reviewed by Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council. 4. As a multi-family development, parkland dedication requirements must be addressed by the Parks & Recreation Advisory Board prior to platting of the property and site plan approval. 5. Provide a general note that all roof and ground-mounted mechanical equipment shall be screened from view or isolated so as not to be visible from any public right-of-way or residential district within 150' of the subject lot, measured from a point five feet above grade. Such screening shall be coordinated with the building architecture and scale to maintain a unified appearance. Reviewed by: Trey Fletcher Date: January 11, 2006 LANDSCAPING/STREETSCAPING/BUFFER 1. With the concept plan level of detail, no landscape plan was provided for review. However, should the Conditional Use Permit be granted for this use, landscaping provisions must comply with Section 5.6.A.10 Landscaping.

In response to your question of whether or not a conceptual site plan could be submitted as part of the CUP application for multi-family in WPC, I've been over the ordinance and believe that it is dear in that a complete application requires site plan that meets our minimum standards. As the Council may impose reasonable restrictions or conditions to carry out the spirit of the UDO and mitigate adverse effects, they may make better decisions with complete information before them. Please let me know if I can answer other questions. Thanks! Molly file://C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\tfletcher\Local%20Settings\Temp\XPGrpWise\43986BE... 12/8/2005 From: Kim Foutz To: Trey Fletcher Date: 8/1/2005 2:56:40 PM Subject: Re: Wolf Pen Creek- potential development Trey- I checked out their website and it looks like they only do multi-family housing (mainly student housing). I did not see any reference to mixed use which concerns me. Should we go ahead and have a meeting to discuss what the ordinance says about multi-family housing only(CUP) and what our position might be on it. As I mentioned earlier, this information should be available from Jane or Natalie's files. >>> Trey Fletcher 07/29/05 7:45 AM >>> Yes, in the event he requests a PAC, that would be helpful - I assume y'all have that. >>> Kim Foutz 07/28/05 6:42 PM >>> Thanks. sorry for responding so late, but I have been on vacation. Eons ago, I met with Jane and Natalie and we internally agreed on which tracts we would support for a conditional use permit for 100% multi- family. We might want to drag that information up in the event he pursues a PAC. >>> Trey Fletcher 07/22/05 8:24 AM >>> Inquiry calls come in daily, but because of our strategic interest in WPC I thought I would provide you with this heads heads up as to a potentially significant development in the WPC District. As Planner on Call yesterday I received a call from a Houston developer, Craig Dickerson (713-570-0350) regarding the 12 ac tract across from FS#1, next to the Arbors Apartments. The firm is the Dinerstein Companies http://www.dmcmqmt.com/home/and have developed here before on Holleman Drive West. As you multi-family in WPC requires a conditional use permit unless the residential uses are located in stories or floors above retail commercial uses. He did not seem put off by this and I encouraged him to hold a PAC, or similar meeting with us discuss this potential project.
